El Veridico de Fidel

The true place of Fidel (that might be the translation of the name). Fidel is the owner and he's the chef. I have heard about this place several times when I was talking to some friends. I was dying to try it, but the problem was its location. It's located in a non so safe area... in front of the a soccer stadium, which might be the reason why it's so popular among the soccer players, well besides of the delicious food they serve.

I was almost loosing hope about going to this place, when suddenly I saw them at the Food Festival! OMG! I saw the light! hahaha. I'll try it. According to the famous Gaston (a Peruvian chef that visits different restaurants and food stands) they prepare the best Leche de Tigre.

This dish, actually appetizer, is the juice of the cebiche (lime, onion, salt, pepper, chili) and they add a dash of milk. They serve it with some pieces of fish, sweet potato and corn. We say that the Leche de Tigre is the best for the hangover, hahaha.

Well, Gaston was so right, this is the best Leche de Tigre ever!!! Not too spicy, but you could taste the spice. The corn was sweet and it was sour but not that much. Too good!!! Mouth watering now...

I can't say much about the restaurant, since I didn't visit it, but I'm considering to go there just to have the leche de tigre again. Also they serve seafood and fish. I'm sure the other dishes might be very tasty too.

Good news! They just opened a 2nd location in a nice area, yay! I guess I should visit that :) And it's cheap!
